Sorry! No flame war intended!
If someone wants to mark this bug as a duplicate again I will keep silent. But-

- I was not clear enough:
1. The first paragraph of the description of bug 87274 by "m.a.riosv" is
actually concerning exactly the same issue. 
2. The attachment created there to explain things in more detail is not
working.
3. The subsequent two paragraphs make things ambiguous, and finally shift to an
enhancement request - as also "raal" saw it in his first comment.
4. The short description (subject) of that bug emphasises this request
exclusively. I was instructed that it is not best practise to mix up reporting
about an actual bug which is also a regression (legacy versions and AOO don't
show it) and requesting a new (and valuable!) feature.
5. Therefore I decided to create a report about the "naked bug".

"...in the manage CF dialog to reunify ranges with the same CF.." requires to
decide what is "same CF" and what not. Difficult!
Fixing this bug only requires to recognise "same range" as already is done by
older versions and AOO. Easy!

Waiting for the implementation of "the new feature" will lead to nothing
because this is a really complicated task, possibly depending on a fundamental
redesign not only of the manager but of the CF itself, which might then be
heavily incompatible with other software within the interoperability range. My
bet: It will not be done within the next 10 years. 

If "same CF" in the other bug was intended to only mean "same range" this is
misleading. The word "conditions" in the subject should exclude this
interpretation, anyhow.
